Book of the Week: Eyebrows of Geese

sagan_eyebrowsofgeesecoverMiriam Sagan is one of the most successful “mainstream” poets to have also made haiku a regular part of her oeuvre. This early chapbook (Dragonscales & Mane Publishing, 1986) gives a good account of how she came to the genre.

You can read the entire book in the THF Digital Library.

Do you have a chapbook published 2010 or earlier you would like featured as a Book of the Week? Contact us for details.

Touching
Mother-of-pearl earrings;
Slipping on ice


Across the sky
Two eyebrows
Of returning geese


Vase of dried flowers
Before the mirror
Outside the window — prairie


Fog rising
Spring thaw
Ache in my old scar
